00:00:00Bennett should get out of here and he does again.
00:00:02And a good back door escape here by bennett!
00:00:04Commentator 1: oh!
00:00:09Knee strikes by gomi.
00:00:18And already doing some trash talking in the ring as well is charles "crazyhorse" bennett, so he really wants to take gomi away from his game plan.
00:00:28Of course it would help if gomi could maybe understand what he was saying.
00:00:33Now into the closed guard goes gomi.
00:00:37And maybe this is some kind of a moral victory, already, for bennett because he's withstood the first couple of minutes, here, boss.
00:00:42What do you think?
00:00:43 I don't know, man.
00:00:45I really have to see what the whole fight's gonna be.
00:00:47He did a pretty good job of escaping that full mount there.
00:00:52That's what I always say because I think it's very overrated in my position.
00:00:59Especially a low one, when they sit on the belly.
00:01:01When you have a high mount it's more difficult to get your opponent up.
00:01:04 and you really see already that gomi's having little difficulty in going to mount position and side control.
00:01:10And now he has his back, high position, has the hooks in, and maybe going for the rear naked choke here.
00:01:16Spins him around, boss.
00:01:17 he's trying but it's not working.
00:01:19 and up to his feet again goes bennett.
00:01:22Misses with a wild right.
00:01:24 catches him with another right.
00:01:26Commentator 2: yeah.
00:01:27 we have a great fight here between gomi and bennett.
00:01:32They exchange.
00:01:33 look at them trading.
00:01:36No, yes, no, uh-uh, uh-uh.
00:01:38That's the game they're playing.
00:01:40 nice left hand by bennett.
00:01:42Oh! and they both connect.
00:01:43 nice body shot of - misses with the right and now it's single leg by gomi, in fact going for the double leg and a slam takedown in a side position, boss.
00:01:51 this is dangerous with the knees, now.
00:01:56 and bennett has him in a face lock there.
00:02:00Of course if he was in better position he might have had the gioultine, but now it's a side position for gomi, no danger whatsoever.
00:02:08 oh, these knees are dangerous.
00:02:10See, that's what I mean.
00:02:11 and it looks like bennett is in trouble.
00:02:13 he should block those knees but you see you don't know where they're gonna come.
00:02:17They could come from othe side, they can go from the top.
00:02:20 and you know, when you take a look, bennett's really impressing me on the bottom though, boss, with his ability to turn the tables and really - look at this.
00:02:29 back to a standing position.
00:02:31And now there's bennett with the slam!
00:02:33 good reversal there by gomez beautifully done and we are having a fight here, between bennett and gomi.
00:02:42 this is a good fight.
00:02:44Commentator 1: Entertaining match-up.
00:02:49 oh, bennett should throw knees.
00:02:51 right hand by gomi.
00:02:54 and another knee.
00:02:59 and gomi now goes downstairs, the double leg take-down and this is where he does have the upper hand, now, boss is going with the mount.
00:03:08Bennett has looked very good thus far in giving gomi all he can handle in the first round of bashido five's main event.
00:03:16And even gomi - commentator 2: oh!
00:03:18 he shouldn't have stutter stepped there, momentarily, with the punch.
00:03:22 he should - in this position again - start bucking up.
00:03:26As soon as gomi loads up for a punch, he should buck up as high as he can so gomi has to look for balance.
00:03:31 and you that frenetic pace, it seems like it's already taken the toll on both fighters here, as they both seem to be needing this rest right here and the mount position, gomi, again, winding up, loading up, on the right hand, there's an arm guard waiting to be taken but doesn't do it.
00:03:46 yeah, he's gonna set it up though, you see?
00:03:48 and you can see that this is where bennett is not well schooled, from this position, boss.
00:03:54 yeah, but who is with gomi on top?
00:03:56 well you're right.
00:03:57 in that weight class.
00:04:02Yeah, in the corner (inaudible) was saying watch out for those knees and it was on the money because right away gomi went for the left knee to the head.
00:04:13He's working for the reverse (inaudible), it looks like he's going to get it.
00:04:16 they're going for the kamura, now, it's coming.
00:04:19 he's setting up, he should secure the head.
00:04:21He should secure the head, he doesn't secure the head.
00:04:23Look at this.
00:04:24 man, does bennett have all kinds of guts and heart.
00:04:27He's gonna break his arm.
00:04:29This is unbelievable.
00:04:31And he's looking at an escape!
00:04:35Crazy horse bennett.
00:04:36 this is crazy.
00:04:37This takes a lot of power out of gomi if he can't pull this one off.
00:04:41 oh my goodness, unbelieveable!
00:04:46What a performance from charles "crazy horse" bennett.
00:04:49 bennett rocked gomi early, but the fireball kid came back to submit crazy horse.
00:04:55To this day, bennett insists that the ref stopped the fight too early.
00:05:00Up next, anderson "the spider" silva steps into the pride ring.

00:09:35Kenda perez: welcome back.
00:09:36Our next fight is a classic match-up between a striker and a grappler.
00:09:41Brazilian striker, anderson silva is one of the most talented mma fighters ever.
00:09:47He took on former ufc champ and jujitsu master, carlos newton at pride 25.
00:09:53 carlos newton fought another shoe-box team member named jose (inaudible) and it was one of the greatest fights that we'd seen.
00:10:03And newton stayed on the outside and kind of traded a little bit with pele in that fight.
00:10:08I think that would be a mistake if he fought that way with anderson silva.
00:10:13Yeah, because he's pinpoint accuracy and he's got long arms.
00:10:17His reach is phenomenal.
00:10:19And he uses it perfectly too.
00:10:23Anderson silva can switch from southpaw to orthodox and he's got a - oh, there's a left hook there by carlos, testing the defense standing of anderson silva.
00:10:34Anderson, he wants to throw that right hand and there's this - there we got it.
00:10:39Almost like a little cat.
00:10:41Climbs under him and he's got him down.
00:10:43 that was really quick and now we're gonna see how anderson silva can hang with carlos newton on the ground.
00:10:51 yeah, because I don't think that carlos is gonna let him i think he's gonna keep that foot right there.
00:11:02He's got to pass it on this side here.
00:11:07 I wonder if anderson expected to go to the ground as quickly.
00:11:10 there we go.
00:11:13Yep, yep, he's passing the foot down.
00:11:16See?
00:11:23Yep, and he passed it.
00:11:24 oh, now he's got side mount.
00:11:26 and this is carolito's gain.
00:11:29 oh yeah, this is where the elbow's gonna come, boss.
00:11:32He did the same move against pele.
00:11:36Anderson, I think anderson's got to get back to his feet.
00:11:39I know he's good on the ground comparatively, but carlos is more than just good.
00:11:45 yeah, plus he's got long arms.
00:11:48Long arms is very typical for arm bars, the same with the legs for leg locks.
00:11:53Really got to get out of there.
00:11:57Look like a cat - carlos - it's unreal.
00:11:59 now he's got the full mount, it's a high mount and he's got one of anderson's arms trapped and there goes the right hand coming down.
00:12:06 he's gonna go for the arm bar, watch this.
00:12:08Commentator 1: yes he is.
00:12:09Anderson can't force the arms up like that.
00:12:12 he's gonna set it up, the punches, and then out of the blue, bam.
00:12:16There we go.
00:12:17There we go.
00:12:18He will probably get the left arm.
00:12:28There we go.
00:12:31 oh, good right hand by carlos.
00:12:35And carlos newton making a move here but anderson is going for the arm bar and look at this.
00:12:39 look at this.
00:12:41 yeah, he was going for the hammer lock there for a second.
00:12:44Anderson got the guard.
00:12:45Whoo.
00:12:47 it is scary.
00:12:49 my heart is beating here because we know it's just a matter of seconds here, if carlo wraps you up right, you're gonna tap.
00:12:57 look at anderson's legs.
00:13:00He's got it hooked behind his knee.
00:13:04His legs are so long, his guard is behind is knee - foot behind his knee - which is a very closed guard.
00:13:10Also very easy to break, but the stronger he's got to hold it, the more it's gonna hurt on his neck.
00:13:18Commentator 1: right.
00:13:20There's wanderlei silva, the pride middleweight champion, giving instructions to his teammate silva.
00:13:28Actually they're not brothers, folks.
00:13:32I think the name silva is a lot like the name jones in the united states.
00:13:35Commentator 2: yeah?
00:13:37Smith.
00:13:39That's in harlem.
00:13:41Everybody's named smith.
00:13:43 there's a lot of sebastians in harlem, too, right?
00:13:45 yeah, yeah, I wonder why they call him boss.
00:13:52I told them you move to the united states and everyone got a match.
00:13:58Now my name's sebastian.
00:13:59 carlos newton and I discussed the fact that if pride did have a third weight division at 185 pounds, this would be about as good a title fight as you could have.
00:14:10 yeah, those two are, in their weight class, the best.
00:14:13 yeah, they really are.
00:14:15 I mean that obviously goes out of weight, he's (inaudible) too of course.
00:14:19 yeah, i think anderson could make 170 also if there were like a fourth division, but right now this would be a non-title fight because there is no 185 pound division currently in the pride fighting championships.
00:14:35But this would almost be a throw-back type of match because you have a purebred striker in silva - anderson silva - even though he is really good on the ground - against a purebred submission guy in carlos newton.
00:14:49Even though he did land a left hook, standing.
00:14:53 he he set him perfectly up and then he makes him come to him.
00:14:59He wants to pay it back, the punch, and that's what the take-down was.
00:15:04 well right now anderson has momentarily warded off the submissions from carlos newton.
00:15:14 yeah, i just wanted to say that carlos who stretch his right leg - anderson now tries to pull (inaudible) and put it under - commentator 1: the thigh?
00:15:24 yeah, the thigh, but I think that's a bad move.
00:15:27 he'd trap himself.
00:15:28 yeah, he'd trap himself plus - he could get submitted.
00:15:31 yeah, well he would I think.
00:15:33 he would submit himself, almost.
00:15:36 because i thought that would be a good thing for carlos to do - catch that foot and bring it forward, you know?
00:15:42It's like a scissor effect of the leg of anderson.
00:15:48But they've got to restart.
00:15:49What referee is this?
00:15:50Okay, this is a different referee.
00:15:56Yeah, they've got to restart.
00:15:58 good, good, good, good, good, good.
00:15:59Commentator 2: very nice.
00:16:01It's what we want to see.
00:16:03 oh, we've got a yellow card happening.
00:16:05Anderson silva gets a yellow card, apparently for stalling.
00:16:13Silva is surprised and i think, I think there's gonna be a knee coming.
00:16:22Silva gonna get back in.
00:16:23He wants to do some damage now.
00:16:24You can see it in his eyes.
00:16:25You can see it in his body language.
00:16:29There's that straight left hand out of the right footed position.
00:16:35And carlos is very relaxed standing up.
00:16:37He said he was gonna bang with the guy if he wanted to.
00:16:40I don't think it would be a good idea, though.
00:16:42Oh!
00:16:44 he's out, he's out, he's out, he's out!
00:16:46Commentator 1: he's out.
00:16:48Commentator 2: oh!
00:16:49Commentator 1: whoa.
00:16:50Whoa.
00:16:53It was not a good idea, indeed.
00:16:55And I'll tell you what, anderson silva - it was gonna be a flying knee but he caught him with the shin.
00:17:02Anderson knew exactly what to do and how to finish.
00:17:05 with this convincing win, the legend of anderson silva continued to grow.
00:17:10He's now regarded by many as the best pound for pound fighter in the world.
00:17:15When we come back, it's shogun against randelman
00:01:57all day here.
00:01:58It doesn't come with peppers.
00:01:59Ya' know you told me you wanted mustard...

00:03:18 welcome back to the best of pride fighting championships.
00:03:22Mauricio shogun rua is one of the most respected stars in mma.
00:03:27In this next fight, he faces kevin "the monster" randleman in pride 32 in las vegas.
00:03:37 we talk about this being the real deal.
00:03:39Let's go now to the referee's last minute instructions for what should be an epic encounter.
00:03:55Randelman is ready.
00:03:56He's a caged animal.
00:04:01 yes, he's been waiting a really long time.
00:04:04Last fight - whoa - take down randelman!
00:04:07 he saw that coming from the locker room.
00:04:11October 10th of '05 was his last fight.
00:04:19He's in a real position right now.
00:04:25The one thing about kevin randelman, he's very athletically gifted but he fights with emotion and sometimes when you fight with emotion it can come back to haunt you.
00:04:34 he's kind of in a position right now.
00:04:40He's trying to get him off.
00:04:41 he's leaning on the rail but i think the ref is trying to get him off.
00:04:52He's so strong, he basically thrust his way out of there.
00:04:55He's in a position still.
00:04:56He's moving his hand out of the way.
00:05:03Kevin's got to get his knee bent.
00:05:04 shogun began training brazilian jujitsu at the age of six.
00:05:10He has a brown belt in bjj from the (inaudible) academy.
00:05:16He's going to manipulate that foot.
00:05:19Kevin literally is doing a is doing a crab thrust just to get out of this position.
00:05:22He's that strong.
00:05:31You can see randelman, the pain on his face.
00:05:33He's yelling.
00:05:34Is he close to tapping out?
00:05:37The fans trying to rally behind him, trying to give him that extra motivation.
00:05:46There's a lot of energy from both guys being spent here.
00:05:49What does he have to do to escape this?
00:05:51 he's trying to flex his way out of this.
00:05:53He's got to start spinning into it, try to get his leg from it.
00:05:55Now.
00:05:57He's got to move now while it's loose.
00:05:58Turn the other way.
00:05:59He's got to turn to his right to get out of this.
00:06:01He keeps letting rua put him back in again.
00:06:05 this is a match that is unbelievable!
00:06:09Look at - he's got to push away.
00:06:12He's just trying to bust his way out.
00:06:23 high drama in the desert city of las vegas.
00:06:27 we have a knee bar situation.
00:06:28This is tough, this is tough.
00:06:34Kevin's very flexible, as you can see.
00:06:35He'd better be.
00:06:38That's it, that's it!
00:06:40Mauricio shogun rua with the submission victory.
00:06:44The crowd is (inaudible).
00:06:46The brazilians celebrating in the center of the ring.
00:06:50Shogun rua continues his meteoric rise in the mma world.
00:07:00 let's go back to the replay.
00:07:02What a struggle it was to get the submission victory for rua.
00:07:05 it took him a long time and that's the patience of brazilian jujitsu.
00:07:08That's the one thing that makes brazilian jujitsu a lot more is the patience you have to set to get yourself in the position.
00:07:13You have to extend yourself out and lean into it.
00:07:17In this position he was getting ready to set it back.
00:07:19He's already got it extended.
00:07:20He's pushing his hip out as far as he can, trying to get a full extension on that hamstring.
00:07:24What you're trying to do is pull that hamstring out and tear the knee apart.
00:07:26That's why it's called a knee bar.
00:07:28 shogun took down the monster, submitting randelman with a knee bar for a first round win.
